Project Description
If provided by the financial institution, the Early Warning System Team writes a short summary describing the purported development objective of the project and project components. Review the complete project documentation for a detailed description.

According to the Bank’s website, the TA will support enhancing sustainability of ADB-funded social infrastructure projects in Group A and Group B developing member countries (DMCs).This will be done through supporting activities for (i) strengthening climate-resilient and gender-responsive social sector infrastructure planning, (ii) improving social sectors' results-based investment programming and budgeting, and (iii) strengthening social sectors' infrastructure asset management. The TA will prioritize support to upstream activities or initiatives that will complement (e.g., through cost-sharing) the work under pipeline or ongoing TA projects or projects of the Human and Social Development Sector Office, Sectors Group (SG-HSD).

Contact Information
This section aims to support the local communities and local CSO to get to know which stakeholders are involved in a project with their roles and responsibilities. If available, there may be a complaint office for the respective bank which operates independently to receive and determine violations in policy and practice. Independent Accountability Mechanisms receive and respond to complaints. Most Independent Accountability Mechanisms offer two functions for addressing complaints: dispute resolution and compliance review.

ACCOUNTABILITY MECHANISM OF ADB

The Accountability Mechanism is an independent complaint mechanism and fact-finding body for people who believe they are likely to be, or have been, adversely affected by an Asian Development Bank-financed project. If you submit a complaint to the Accountability Mechanism, they may investigate to assess whether the Asian Development Bank is following its own policies and procedures for preventing harm to people or the environment. You can learn more about the Accountability Mechanism and how to file a complaint at: http://www.adb.org/site/accountability-mechanism/main.
